"Freak" lyrics - THE SMASHING PUMPKINS

They poison our sweet mother earth
Destroy our sacred bodies
To fill our mouths with junk and
They call this knowledge but knowing nothing means knowing far far too much
They let our children starve in the name of peace
They march to the beat of a killing machine

Life is not a dream when you can't wake up from the dream you wanted,
Life is not a dream when you can't wake up from the dream you wanted,

Oh, they'll pour the salt from your soul
Oh, they'll pour the salt from your soul

Scars and bars and 51 stars
In faith and milk and I'm drinking filth and disease
Oh pretty please I'm begging freedom
There's lives to be blinded
Servants unkinded
Before we've paid
And then we'll pay some more
Do you know the score? 'cause I'm so fucking bored

Life is not a dream when you can't wake up from the dream you wanted
Life is not a dream when you can't wake up from the dream you wanted

Oh, they'll pour the salt from your soul
Oh, they'll pour the salt from your soul

They'll sell your wounds as evidence of your hope

Life is not a dream when you can't wake up from the dream you wanted
Life is not a dream when you can't wake up from the dream you wanted
Life is not a dream
Life is not a...
Life is not a dream
Life is not a dream
